Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha inaugurated the new Supra Multispeciality Hospital at Motorstand in Agartala, marking another step towards strengthening healthcare services in the state.

During the meeting, the progress of various ongoing development works under the Agartala Smart City project was reviewed, with officials apprising the Chief Minister of the status of implementation.
The meeting also discussed issues related to the repair and maintenance of national highways and roads under the Public Works Department (PWD) across the state.

Finally some development in Agartala! We've been struggling with limited options for serious treatments. Hope this hospital brings down the need to travel to Guwahati or Kolkata for everything. 🙏
Nice to see CM attending a blood donation camp alongside. But I hope the state also focuses on strengthening the existing government hospitals instead of just celebrating private ones. Public healthcare deserves equal priority.
As someone who has roots in Tripura but lives abroad, this is heartening. Multispeciality care closer to home means a lot for the elderly population in the state. 👏
The power sector review and road maintenance discussions are equally crucial. Healthcare infra is important, but so are basic amenities like reliable electricity and good roads. Hope all these get equal focus on the ground.
Good initiative overall, but I wish such hospitals also offered a certain percentage of free beds for the underprivileged. Healthcare should not become a luxury in our state. 🙏
Impressive to see a CM juggling healthcare inauguration, power sector review, and badminton championship opening on the same day. Prioritizing sports and youth engagement is a great plus for the Northeast. 🏸
